All high-speed handpieces incorporate an air or water spray as a coolent.Water or air spray are adjusted in a way that it forms a halo to cool the rotating bur at such a high speed.

They come in various varieties like chuck/push, standard/mini/super torque,turbine air rotors and now ,for the more visibility fibre-optic are introduced in the market. With high-speed handpieces the bur continues to rotate even after the clinician removes his foot from pedal controlling air/water spray, its called coast speed.Most of the handpieces have two holes in the front, its called Borden two holes handpiece.Now, three holes are introduced which is used to vent out the excess air from the head of handpieces.Many materials are used in the manufacture of handpieces like stainless steel which is stronger and heavier but now titanium is used which is much lighter, stronger and more resistant to repeated cycles of sterilization.Handpieces should routinely require cleaning and disinfection.The lubricant should be used safely to use in the conjunction with steamsterilization at 135 degree Celsius.
